A 3×3 factorial experiment was conducted in flow-through aquaria to evaluate effects of diets, containing 0%, 4%, or 8% menhaden fish meal, on growth performance, body composition, and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) of juvenile channel catfish of Mississippi “normal” (MN), NWAC103 [formally known as USDA103], or USDA303 strains. Twenty fish with an average weight of 4.7±0.1 g fish (±S.D.)...

In the crystal structure of the title compound, [MnCl(2)(C(12)H(8)N(2))(2)]·0.5C(7)H(6)O(4)·2H(2)O, the Mn(II) complex assumes a distorted octa-hedral geometry formed by two chloride anions and two phenanthroline (phen) ligands. The 2,6-dihydroxy-benzoic acid mol-ecule is disordered about an inversion center. The face-to-face separations of 3.540 (11) and 3.429 (8) Å between parallel phen ligan...

In the title mononuclear complex, [Mn(C(8)H(7)O(2))(4)(C(10)H(8)N(2))], the Mn(II) atom lies on a twofold rotation axis and has a distorted octa-hedral coordination geometry defined by four O atoms from four 4-methyl-benzoate ligands and two N atoms from one 2,2'-bipyridyl ligand. The crystal structure is stabilized by inter-molecular hydrogen bonds and π-π stacking inter-actions [the centroid-...

In the title complex, [Mn(C(4)H(5)O(2))(C(27)H(27)N(7))(C(3)H(7)NO)]ClO(4)·C(3)H(7)NO, the Mn(II) ion is seven-coordinated in a distorted monocapped trigonal-prismatic geometry formed by a tetra-dentate tris-(1-methyl-1H-benzimidazol-2-ylmeth-yl)amine mol-ecule, a bidentate 2-methacrylate anion and a dimethyl-formamide mol-ecule. The methyl groups of the coordinated dimethyl-formamide mol-ecule...

In the polymeric title complex, {[Mn(O(2)CC(6)H(4)-p-OH)(2)(C(10)H(8)N(2))]·C(10)H(8)N(2)·2H(2)O}(n), the Mn(II) atom is coordinated in a distorted octa-hedral geometry defined by four O atoms from three different carboxyl-ate ligands and two trans-N atoms from two 4,4'-bipyridine ligands. In the crystal structure, an extensive range of O-H⋯O and O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds link the complex and all no...

in order to study the effect of different levels of the manure and foliar application of zn and mn fertilizers on the quantitative and qualitative yield of soybeans (var. williams), a factorial experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block design with three replications in 2012. treatments involved three levels of fertilizer: manure (zero as control; six and 12 t/ha), two levels of mn...

Background: Most of the cytogenetic dosimetry, except Premature Chromosome Condensation assay, saturates at 6 Gy. Present studies are aimed to assess feasibility of simple CB-MN assay for prescreening of high dose accidental exposures. Materials and Methods: Human peripheral blood lymphocytes from two donors were gamma irradiated to different doses ranging from 0-15Gy, cultured for 72 h. Cytoch...

Let us denote the massless NS-NS background fields by GMN , BMN and φ, and the R-R n-form field strengths by F (n) M1···Mn , where n is even in type-IIA and odd in type-IIB theory. It is customary to define two sets of R-R potentials, which we denote by C (n) M1···Mn and C ′(n) M1···Mn . Denoting by F and C the sums of n-forms ∑n=9 n=1 F (n) and ∑n=8 n=0 C (n) (similarly forC), the relations am...

In the title polymer, [Mn(C(8)H(8)O(5))(H(2)O)(2)](n), the Mn(II) atom is in a distorted octa-hedral coordination mode, binding to the bridging O atom of the bicyclo-heptane unit, two O atoms from corresponding carboxyl-ate groups, one carboxyl-ate O atom from a symmetry-related bridging ligand and two water O atoms. This arrangement leads to the formation of polymeric chains propagating parall...
